Universal Coffee Creamer/Sugar

[gansky1]

Has anyone ever seen these before? They were evidently part of a set from Universal but I've never seen them before. The design stamped on the sides of the creamer and sugar matches that of the percolator. I found these at an estate sale today, thought maybe someone could shed a bit more light on them. I have a percolator with this same design on it, but have never seen them as a set before now.

Greg those are amazing!! I sure have never seen anything like them. I knew that Sunbeam made the cream, sugar, and tray for the coffeemaster but this is sure a new one on me. Thanks so much for sharing the pictures.

Greg...

Great addition to your collection. Are those sterling or silver plated?

They'll look fab at dinner parties and coffee klatches on that new countertop. I can already smell the coffee brewing and hear the chatter. "Doris, did you hear what happened to Mildred at the Fareway's on 72nd and Giles?!"

There should be a coffee pot/perc. and possibly a tray to go with the creamer & sugar. I have a late 30's Farberware coffee set that has an urn style pot, creamer, sugar & tray. That would make for a very nice set, if you can find all the matching pieces.

I have a perc that matches this shape and stamped design but Roger looked in his books last night and there never was a tray for the set of this era. I have the Sunbeam set with the tray and stand for the upper bowl of the Coffeemaster, I see the trays at sales every now and then - orphaned from their other pieces.

I just have to perk up and say that our daily driver is a Universal Percolator with this design too. It's great to see these -- I'll have to keep my eye out for a set.
